Republic of the Philippines OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT COMMISSION ON HIGHER EDUCATION CHED MEMORANDUM ORDER (CMO) No. 37 Series 2007 SUBJECT: REVISED POLICIES AND STANDARDS FOR BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN_AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING (BSAE) PROGRAM In accordance with the pertinent provisions of Republic Act (RA) No. 7722, otherwise known as the “Higher Education Act of 1994,” and by virtue of Commission en Banc Resolution No, 318-2007 dated 7 May 2007 and for the purpose of revising CMO 04, Series of 2001 entitled “Guiding Principles and Minimum Standards for Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering Program” with the end view of keeping apace with the demands of global compétitiveness, the {following policies and standards are hereby adopted and promulgated by the Commission, ARTICLE| INTRODUCTION Section 1. Rationale ‘Agricultural Engineering is a discipline based on the application of engineering principles of the production, processing, handling and storage of food, fiber and materials of Biological origin. Agricultural engineering covers such areas as inigation and drainage of ‘agricuttural land, soil erosion control, the planning of agricultural buildings and structures, post harvest technology, agricultural waste management and the development of labor and energy- ‘saving agricuttural equipment and systems. ‘As a discipline that is continuously evolving in response to advances in information technology and bio-technology, changing market needs and policy environments, agricultural engineering is progressively challenged to further improve the efficiency of agricultural Production systems, and at the same time effectively reduce or eliminate environmental hazards as well as utilize agricultural waste and by-products. tt is in this context that the curriculum of the undergraduate program in Agricultural Engineering has been reviewed and consequently improved to make sure that the program will produce graduates who have the necessary skills and competence to respond to the changing needs of the local and international environment. ARTICLE I AUTHORITY TO OPERATE ‘The Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering program shall be operated only by Private institutions of higher learning with proper authonty granted by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) and Local Colleges and Universities (LCUs) should likewise adhere to the provisions of this Order. ARTICLE Ill PROGRAM SPECIFICATIONS Section 2. Degree The degree program herein shall be called Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering (BSAE). Section 3. Program Description Page 1 oF 12 — Potaes and Sancaras br BS Apnaatsa ErareetoThe Agricultural Engineering program is designed to produce graduates who possess knowledge and skils in the application of engineering principles for the production, processing, handing and storage of food, fiber and materials of biological origin. The graduates expected to understand and apply engineering principles particularly in the solution of problems conceming irrigation and drainage of agricultural land, soil erosion control, planning of agricultural buildings, agricultural waste management and the development of labor and energy-saving agricultural equipment and systems. Its intent is to provide engineering education that will prepare students to pursue careers principally in the industry and entrepreneurship as well as in government, and the academe. 3.1 Objectives ‘The BS Agricultural Engineering (BSAE) program aims to: 3.1.1 train students in the application of engineering principles particularly in the ‘solution of problems related to agro-industrial development; 3.1.2 prepare them to become professionals with entry-level competencies; 3.1.3 develop appreciation in the students, of the potentials of an agricultural engineering business enterprise; 3.1.4 instil in the students a concern for the preservation and protection of the ‘natural environment; and 3.1.8 prepare students for advanced studies. 3.2 The BSAE graduate is adequately knowledgeable and can discuss competently with his counterpart from the allied programs on many related technical issues and ‘concems. A BSAE graduate may qualify as: 3.2.1 Agricultural Engineer 3.2.2 Imigation or Drainage Engineer 3.2.3. Designer and Manager of production and post-production facilities 3.2.4 Designer/Manufacturer of Agricultural Machinery 3.25 Researcher 3.2.6 Extension Worker 3.27 Instructor/Professor 3.2.8 Businessman/Entrepreneur 3.2.9 Project Manager 3.2.10 Project Consultant 3.2.11 Sales Engineer 3.2.12 Farm Manager 3.2.13 Municipal/Provincial Planner 3.2.14 Other Emerging Professions Section 4. Areas of Concentration ‘The following are the areas of concentration of the BSAE program: 4.1. Soil and Water Resources 4.2 Agricultural Power and Machinery 4.3 Agricultural Processing, Storage and Electrification 4.4 Agricultural Structures and Environmental Science and Protection Section 5. Objective _ Page 2 of 72 — Pokies and Sancara for 86 Agatha EgetngThe purpose of offering areas of concentration in agricultural engineering is to strengthenffocus graduate expertise in the aforementioned areas for advanced studies or for career employment. Section 6. Allied programs Agricultural engineering has mechanical, civil, electrical and chemical engineering for allied courses in basic engineering. On the other hand, it has crop, soil, animal, fishery and forestry sciences for allied courses in agriculture. ARTICLE IV COMPETENCY STANDARDS (See Attachment A) ARTICLE V CURRICULUM Section 7 Curriculum Description ‘The curriculum has a well-balanced general education and strong technical courses ‘aimed at developing students with appropriate knowledge, skills, attitude and values. A unique feature of the BSAE curriculum is the requirement for the student to complete an undergraduate thesis or @ practicum study. This considerably enhances the student's research ability for graduate studies, employment work or professional practice. Section 8.
